Folks,

digging thru the results from the tests with the new DeviceMapClient I
noticed that the User-agent test-data is missing user-agent strings for
almost 10% of the devices in the 1.19 release !

(Full list here :
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/devicemap/trunk/openddr/test-data/src/main/resources/test-data/missing_ua.txt?view=co
)

Obviously we need 'decent' test-data, i.e. : user-agent string at least
for the devices in the resources, in order to conduct meaningful tests.

So, I was thinking :

- - Stefano : for sure, in order to make the builder-data sources OpenDDR
must have samples of the User-agents for the specified devices. Would it
be possible to inquire whether they would be willing to share those ?
Maybe include them in future releases ?

- - I'm sure, particularly Adobe and The Weather Channel, as well as
others, must see bazillions of user-agents in their web-logs every
day. Would it be possible to ask your respective web-ops people to
make available a weekly or monthly list of just the user-agent strings ?

- - Bertrand : the ASF itself must also collect massive amounts of
user-agent strings in there logs. Is there someone, maybe in
Infrastructure, we can contact with our request ?

- - Maybe we can 'canvass' other Apache lists asking for lists of
user-agent strings ?

I have resources dedicated to sorting out the user-agent lists : weed
out duplicates, match to device etc, after which I will make them all
available, as before, in the test-data directory.

I will be updating the test-data with the user-agents I harvested
since the last contribution and I very much hope to get much more in
response to this urgent request.

Anyone who wants contribute user-agents string : just mail the lists
to : [email protected] and I will ensure they appear matched to device
(if 'mobile') in the test-data repository.

Looking forward to an overwhelming response,

esjr
